One thought watching CFB all day

[section9]

Texas OL starting controlling the game is why they won. Getting 4-5 yds/ per carry running allowed the comeback. Arch had guys wide open once that happened that even he could not miss. Not impressed by either of those two QB’s in the least.
.

Now imagine what someone with Mensah's talent and WR Room can do with that kind of time.

 

[Kn[]_[]ckles3o5]

Why unfortunately? They had a good one last year too.

And we dominated it.

We need ND to be a CFP quality opponent

**** those ginger midgets. We don't need them for **** if we handle our business

I’ll tell you my one thing I realized after today is that Miami has the best QB in college football. Again.

Best QB and WR room by a mile

 

[DoctorKrazey]

You can really see Oregon’s trenches slowly get softer and softer each year Mario gets further removed from that program.

 

[ShadowSpring]

Alot of in season development needed across the country, we will see who ends the year strong

The good news for us is we have a high draft pick at OT and another good one. We can develop Cantwell to play G.

 

[section9]

There’s going to be fratricidal contests all over the B1G and the SEC. This is going to help us and the Wee Irish Peoples in the rankings as time goes on. It will also help Bloomington because of their cake schedule. We could go into South Bend 1-2.

Auburn, Ole Miss, and Texas are all depending on one former Miami offensive lineman as an essential contributor this year.

Canes might have the 2 best OT duo in college football again!!!!

 

[canester95]

We might have the best everything but that means NOTHING.
Stay focused and got 1-0 every game
Do not read your own press
How many times have we fallen into this very trap
I WANT to BELIEVE we are in a new era
Let’s Go Canes!!!

Does anybody in America have a good offensive line?

Good question. OLs need time and experience. Indiana is supposed to have a strong OL. I think the Canes will improve throughout the year. A lot of transfer portal movement affects OL cohesion.

 

[AUcane]

Think you are underselling TX OL. The end around and gimmicky play calls by Sark were awful, but they pushed OSU around the 4th quarter and Arch was pretty well protected all night.

Agree but I also think it’s a combo of OSU’s DL isn’t as good as before

 

[rvalenza]

UVA game 1 stood out

Not many others that I’ve seen

UVA Oline like the rest of their team is sneaky good. Smart F'ers

 

[NicKane]

Notre Dame, unfortunately

They have zero juice at the skill positions. Zero!

 

[NicKane]

Does anybody in America have a good offensive line?

The University of Miami has a good offensive line. Our issues, especially in the run game are not from being overpowered, it’s from lack of communication and committing errors in run blocking. Our pass blocking has been fantastic! The run blocking will continue to get better as the interior communication improves.

 

[NicKane]

Now imagine what someone with Mensah's talent and WR Room can do with that kind of time.

We’re giving Mensah that kind of time. Our pass protection has been some of the best in the nation.

 

[NicKane]

Canes might have the 2 best OT duo in college football again!!!!

Absolutely and as a combo, I think we have the best tackle combo in the country again. Pancake and McCoy have been excellent.

 

[Chuck Norris]

The University of Miami has a good offensive line. Our issues, especially in the run game are not from being overpowered, it’s from lack of communication and committing errors in run blocking. Our pass blocking has been fantastic! The run blocking will continue to get better as the interior communication improves.

Our guard and center play has been objectively bad. Missed assignments and slow to get to assignments. Pad level too high. Lots of work to do if we want to be a national championship contender.

We also need to bench Chase, but that’s a different conversation.

 

[NC_Canes_11]

Notre Dame, unfortunately

They’re a good group but they have serious issues running the football. Idk how much of it is a drop off in talent in the RB room, scheme/teams selling out, or them not gelling yet or just can’t run block. Guess we’ll find out.

 

[canes23]

Think you are underselling TX OL. The end around and gimmicky play calls by Sark were awful, but they pushed OSU around the 4th quarter and Arch was pretty well protected all night.

Agree. I think TX OL played well, protected Manning and in the 4th was pushing taints DL around. Was not impressed at all by OSU OL or DL last night.

And one dumb question - why didn’t Day let TX score to preserve time and get the ball back to try for a game winning FG? Had he let them score when they got to 1st and goal, taint gets the ball back with about 1 min left.

People are worried about who looks great now. But its who looks great in November. Last season was the first time in ages we were playing better late in the season than anytime before. Also every team has new players emerge and we have alot of candidates ready to break out and become stars, outside of the well known players like Toney, Mensah Bryce etc.

Exactly
Two games in and people have already made season long conclusions.
Development, injuries, surprises good and bad.
Long way to go.
Just look at texas's schedule through october. They could be undefeated and the clear team to beat. They could go 3-2 & still playoff bound. Or lose 3, 4 of those games and be outside looking in.
